I noticed the SB TL was taking comments on epic armor, so here is the ranger epic with a few comments:

Vest

str 15
hits 40
stealth 3
crush 7%

str cap 5
hits cap 40

proc: heal 80 3/3 charges

**MAKE SURE REACTIVE PROC**

Helm

str 18
hits 40
stealth 3
energy 6%
body 6%
hits cap 40

10 17% haste charges

Sleeves

con 15
CD 3
Recurve 3
slash 7%

str cap 5
con cap 5

10 8pt health regen charges

**BAD UTILITY. DROP + CON AND RAISE CON TO 18 AND CD TO 4. ALSO, CHARGES ON SLEEVES ARE A NO-NO**

Leggings

dex 15
all melee 3
recurve 3
thrust 7%

dex cap 5
con cap 5

ablative proc

**BAD UTILITY**

Gloves

con 18
quick 15
hits 40
CD 3
matter 6%
spirit 6%

10 75 AF charges

** 60 SECOND REUSE TOO! THESE ARE WORTH USING IN REAL RVR IF YOU NEED THE RESISTS AND HAVE PF BELOW 31. **

Boots

dex 18
quick 15
all melee 3
heat 6%
cold 6%

dex cap 5

20% End heal proc

*PRETTY NICE**

Dacht already tried to make up a template using all of those pieces. It actually came out pretty okay. Not spectacular. On a classic server you could do better with MP crafted stuff along side Darkspire stuff, and on a regular server there's about a million ways you could do better. Still, better than what's available now anyway.

Thanks for the inputs. I am trying to get the whole suit right now on Pend, just haven't managed just yet.

Please post the templates you come up with.

Also, keep in mind, there are mostly intended for folks below RR5. AF 100 is as high as they can go.

Yeah, I get that. But my point is that, as you said on critshot, there is so little difference between AF100 and AF102... why not just make it 102 so it's not permanently labeled as "lowbie" armor? <shrug> It just seems to me that epic armor should be... well, worthy of being called epic! I'm not the type that would ask for a perfect RvR suit to be simply handed to you, but at least having the full AF would be nice. Doesn't really matter since, as I said, I'll be doing my MP+Darkspire outfit anyway. (assuming I ever level up on the classic servers...on Perc I already have no need for this stuff)

Here's a template using that stuff. I can't claim credit for it though, Dacht came up with it. He used all gear available on a Classic server though, so someone could probably do better if including ToA drops. It's still not really bad though. He also used 99q weapons to keep it cheap for the newbie rangers that would more likely be using this stuff.

Keep in mind, there will be some tweaking as time goes along. I am already hearing about a couple. I'll keep at them.

And that's a nice template if it's just thrown together. I need to get me one of those belts.
